Is this a stunt?

I can’t help but feel that this is a very abusive and odd attempt to jump on the Wetherspoons withdrawal from social media that I wrote about yesterday. Perhaps with the aim of raising the profile of The British Milk Council via a stunt. It takes some bottle to go down this root. It’s certainly gathered attention!

If it’s not a stunt, then why are the tweets still there? Even if Jason was the only person with the password, surely a reset email could be accessed by an admin? The clot, I mean plot thickens.

Wait. Digging deeper…

I’ve skimmed their earlier feed, and here’s an odd tweet from last week:

There’s some humour here with the initial sentiment of the tweet, but is it really a constructive piece of content? I’ll ignore the typo for now. Their feed is generally amusing (or at least trying to be):

Someone at our milk processing plant done goofed and put a red sock in the milk churners. So as not to waste it, we’re going to sell it as milk for women, but sarcastically. We’re calling it Man Milk. #ManMilkpic.twitter.com/d8znf8Nn0L

Wait. Hold the bus. The British Milk Council doesn’t even exist!

As I write this and research, the whole thing’s unravelling. That’s live reporting for you!

There’s nothing in this search result that relates to it. Sure, there’s milk.co.uk and some other stuff, but what’s the connection there? Is the whole thing a sham? A mere spoof? I think I may have had my udder pulled. Holy cow.

Bravo spoof account owner, bravo…

Update – Rumours circulating that this is the owner of the spoof account:

BREAKING: I’ve managed to track down Jason from @BuyBritishMilk and can confirm that: (a) he is real, and (b) he’ll be speaking to me for an EXCLUSIVE interview
